Samsung Takes Eye-Scrolling Technology to Disabled Community

Samsung Electronics Co. said Tuesday it has developed a next-generation mouse that can help people with disabilities type, scroll and navigate the Internet without the use of hands.

The project, called EYECAN+, uses a sensor mounted below a computer monitor to read a user’s eye movements, with a blink of the eye used to register a click of the mouse to either copy, paste, select all, zoom in or activate another of 18 basic computer functions.
